| gnathostomiasis in wild boars from japan. | gnathostoma doloresi, a nematode parasite producing ulcerative and/or granulomatous lesions in the gastric wall of domestic pigs and wild boars (sus scrofa leucomystax) throughout southeastern asia, is an important zoonosis causing cutaneous larva migrans in humans. patients infected with g. doloresi have been found yearly in the vicinity of miyazaki prefecture, japan. adult nematodes were found in 31 of 32 wild boars captured at two different geographic locations in the prefecture, a location i ... | 1998 | 9476238 |
| visceral helminths of wild boars (sus scrofa leucomystax) in japan, with special reference to a new species of the genus morgascaridia inglis, 1958 (nematoda: schneidernematidae). | twenty-nine japanese wild boars (sus scrofa leucomystax), collected during the hunting seasons of 2005 and 2006 in the western part of the mainland of japan (honshu), were examined for their visceral helminths. eighteen helminth parasites were prevalent in them, including 17 nematoda species (metastrongylus elongatus, metastrongylus salmi, metastrongylus asymmetricus, metastrongylus pudendotechus, stephanurus dentatus, gnathostoma doloresi, physocephalus sexulata, ascarops strongylina, capillari ... | 2008 | 18328113 |
| molting of gnathostoma doloresi (nematoda: gnathostomatoidea) in the definitive host. | premolt, molting, and postmolt worms of gnathostoma doloresi (nematoda: gnathostomatoidea) recovered from the stomach wall of naturally infected wild boars sus scrofa leucomystax in miyazaki, japan, were examined morphologically. the only molt observed was that from the advanced third-stage to the adult stage. it is strongly suggested that the gnathostomes molt only once in the definitive host. | 2001 | 11227880 |
